Free Music Notes for Hotel Costes, Vol. 9
Free Music Review: Great Track Selection But Mediocre Mixing
Hit: 4 Stars
The Hotel Costes series has a favorable element to its compilations when compared to the other biggies such as Cafe Del Mar. The sets are mixed. Anyone can compiled an album together, but mixing the tracks adds several layers of complexity to the compilation.
Volume 7 of Hotel Costes features well above average track selection, but the mixing is pretty dire. A lot of this has to do with the track layout. There are just too many examples throughout the album where transitioning flanking tracks sound out of place. This is my only gripe with the album. Otherwise a nice downtempo album that is much better than most out there.
4/5 stars.
Hotel Costes, Vol. 9 Poster
As this is the 7th release in the Hotel Costes series, you might think you know what to expect from DJ Stephane Pompougnac's turntables. But 2003's Hotel Costes 6 provided a dose of the dark and unexpected, a trend which happily continues on Costes 7. The usual oh-so-classy, jazz-tinged dance fare, driven into the ground by a thousand downtempo DJs, hasn't been totally expunged. But grittier tracks and a deeper commitment to a thumping beat make for a sound that's not so easy to ignore. Minor chords and heavy basslines from songs like Dolphin Boy's "Don't Stop (Dublex Inc Remix)" along with memorable contributions from Mark Rae and Mo' Horizons ensure this record won't fade into the background like another layer of cocktail party d?cor. The further Pompougnac gets from the swanky, but sterile hotel lobby, the better it is for listeners who prefer dancing over lounging. --Matthew CookeFrench DJ/Artist St?phane Pompougnac's seventh installment in this popular series featuring the best tracks heard at France's premiere club, bar and cafe. The Hotel Costes series serves as a ''tastemaker'' (read: trendsetting) for the rest of the world. His penchant for choosing the very best music for this series burns bright as he incorporates tracks on this outing from Rodney Hunter, Trinity FM, Bobby Hughes Combination and others. Feel free to luxuriate with the sounds and splendor of the most relaxing place in Paris with the upper crust. The ''C?stes'' brand is forever linked with the ultimate in quality and is renowned with patrons as the home of luxury in Paris. After all, the overriding theme is ''all things in excess.''
Lounge Music DJ Extraordinaire Stephane Pompougnac Follows Up his Best Selling Solo Album with the Lucky Seventh Volume of Music from Paris' Hotel Costes. The Series Continues to Thrive in No Small Part Due to Pompougnac's Keen Ear for the Best of Chillout and Lounge Music from around the World as Well as his Meticulous Assembly of These Great Tracks. As We have all Learned, this is the Music that You'll Be Listening to Over and Over Again for Months to Come and this Disc is the Place to Hear These Recordings First! Expand Your Musical Listening Horizon and Chill Out with the Best!
